more bushing help, looking for something soft

[weasel on fire]

ok ive got khiro white barrel white insert top, on my front slalom truck, but its too soft, i get 0 rebound, in the back i have an hourglass bottom and white top, and the bottom is too hard, it doesnt compress hardly at all, ive tried blue barrel bottom khiros but they are just as hard as the hourglass but with more thane so they are even harder feeling



so im looking for something harder than a white khiro but softer than a blue any advice of where to look, and i already tried a blue white combo it didnt work, ive got a set of blue and a set of green stims but neither seem to work for it really cuz they are very small trucks


thanx for the help

Clear Radikals are soft like white Khiros, but have rebound like a MOTHA

Bones HardCore bottoms used as tops.

i have some yellow bones but they feel harder by a bit, is it the soft ones i need, i think i like the idea of the radikals better because they are larger and cheaper

Radikal bottom, HardCore (bottom) top. Go with the blue/soft Bones.

It's an amazing combo. I've tried it, and it's sublime.

If you can find 'em for cheap, I suggest...
Soft yellow Stim bottom, with a lathed clear Radikal top.
Good combo

are you saying lathe the radikal into a stim shape? any advice on how to do this because i was going to try it, i was going to chuck a bolt into my drill so i can get it spinning and use a file to lathe the bushing down but i wasnt sure how well to do this

[bpz]

The stock Radikal is a bit too big to fit into the bushing cup of my Tracker RT-X correctly. I used a lathe at my school to keep the barrel shape, but made it a bit smaller so it fit nicely.

[weasel on fire]

are they too wide or too tall?

[bpz]

Too wide: the outer diameter is a bit too big. They are taller than standard barrel bushings, but I've had no problems with the stock Tracker kingpin.

i say take your white khiro and add some more thin urethane washers cut from other bushings.
